My Upgrades Are Invincible

Before the awkward moment could continue, I put Ais back on her feet even if she looked a little unsteady from both what has happened and her body not adjusting from its priorly injured state.

"You will heal up just fine Ais but how did you guys find us so easily?" I asked more towards Riveria knowing how much of an airhead not to mention Ais still had a blank look to her face having seen a black dragon being killed in front of her would have certainly triggered a number of painful memories.

I could feel the force of Riveria rolling her eyes at me from across the room as she dryly responded. "We just had to follow the chewed-up corpses of the Ikelos and other criminal Familia members as the rampaging Violas made it quite apparent, they were all rushing here.

'Huh so the Violas ended up in conflict with the all the people down here basically. Does that mean there could be a surviving member of whatever Familia that is making these monster's we could question?' I thought as I had no foreknowledge on who was making these Violas as I only watched the first few episodes of the third season of the anime so at this point, I had zero cannon knowledge to go off of seeing as Freya has been neutralized from messing with me or Bell.

So basically, all there was in terms of world events was to grind/conquer the dungeon to get level ten, save Artemis and kill the One-Eyed Black Dragon.

'Man, when Orario burns around you in reaction to your actions, it kinda kicks cannon to the curb...' I thought dryly as I considered my next life steps as the world ending dragon was still far out of my power level if dozens of people stronger than Alfia got slaughtered by it. As for conquering the dungeon well I couldn't see us being able to do it without me mass producing those teleporting lanterns for the people of Orario to use as just the expedition to get from the first to the fiftieth floor would take weeks at best.

Lastly for helping Artemis... I needed a pit stop in the Nasuverse to get either Rule Breaker or Enkidu if I wanted to bind or otherwise unseal her from Antares as none of the materials, I can find can come close to sealing or being able to safely pry Artemis's mortal frame from the monster's body.

"Good job killing the dragon, Jake!" Bell cried out as he shook his mind out of the gutter.

I just waved tiredly at him as I went and fed Aisha a stronger elixir I fused and gave her a piggyback ride as she was exhausted from the battles. "Riveria, Ais, have fun cleaning this up we are exhausted having fought that dragon and many other monster's as well as the criminals working along with the Ikelos Familia who seemed to be storing these monsters."

Riveria just waved me off seeing how tired we all were and at this point we would only be a liability should there be another strong monster in this Labyrinth. "Take Ais with you as she is in no shape for serious investigation let alone combat. But I will be back at the church in a few hours with Lady Loki to get an oral report from you about what started all this."

"Fine that works for us. Come on Ais let's get out of here." I responded and gently led the shell-shocked girl out of the room and into the tunnels.

Thankfully as we arrived at where the entrance to the hole to the surface, I made we all noticed there was a pulley system kind of elevator that was ferrying people up and down into Knossos so I didnt have to try to fly with both Aisha on my back and carrying Ais at the same time.

When we arrived back at the church it was Haruhime who answered the door, and the fox girl happily took her sister figure off my back and helped me guide Ais into the church and seat her on one of the bench's.

Bell had already split off to go back to simping for Eina though I had a decent suspension his harem protagonist aura was working its magic on the lonely Christmas cakes in the female guild employee's. Ryuu also somehow managed to hide and flee into the tunnels of Knossos when the fight ended as she was still wanted by the authorities of Orario.

"You alright Ais?" I asked as I collapsed into the bench beside her.

For a moment I thought she was going to ignore me and remain in her stupor like she was on the trip back, but I was wrong as she brushed her hand through her hair and pushed behind her ears seeing as her hair piece was somehow broken in the battle. "I should feel a bit of relief seeing a black dragon being killed, but I can only think about how my spirit magic, my wind magic was so easily used against me with the dragon just casually breathing flames which ignited all the wind I stirred up."

She shook her head and continued to stare ahead and not making eye contact with me as I sat beside her. "If that dragon could so easily defeat me, when will I be able to defeat the real One-Eyed Black Dragon." She then sighed obviously distraught.

I patted her knee which got her to finally make eye contact with me in this conversation. "Ais like I said previously you need to be ready to work with others for your goal as I myself have the goal to kill that dragon, plus we can work together to get stronger."

Ais's eyes lit up at the reminder of how I helped her, and the rest of the Loki Familia Executives rank up to level six. "You will continue to help me get stronger?" She murmured leaning closer to me obviously consumed by the thought, not caring how she was less than a couple inches from our noses touching or likewise a kiss.

"Yes, Ais I will help you..." Ais seemed to mentally collapse in relief and with that little slump made her meet my own lips in a light chaste kiss making her eyes widen in shock but as we were connected by our lips for a couple seconds in silence, she seemed to come alive in a way I haven seen as she with one swift motion flipped a leg over my lap and straddled me to press her body against me.

The surprise threw me off for a moment but I gently gripped Ais by her hips and pushed her back and disengaged us from the kiss that was more of Ais trying to swallow my own tongue in her inexperience. "Ais you are a beautiful woman and before anything else happens you need to know I am involved with my goddess and my Familia members romantically." I explained and although I wanted to say she had a great personality as well as call her beautiful... That would be a bit of a lie as she is an airhead at best with her whole life being consumed with killing that dragon.

But the airheaded woman who I was starting to think was a bit autistic or otherwise emotionally stunted simply shrugged. "I want you to be mine, but you can't really be mine all the time with you being not only in another Familia, but I also want to be able to train on my own, plus I might be a bit Bi with how Lefiya's hugs make me tingle." Having said her piece, she dipped in, and my face was covered with her soft blond locks as she attempted to lock lips again clumsily but this time, I matched her motions to start coaching her the right actions to make out.

'It's a good thing Hestia will only see this as me seducing away Loki's favorite pet...' I thought wryly as I cupped the pert bottom of the girl of who squealed happily at my actions, and she likewise started brushing her hands though my hair and around my neck.
